Drugs they prescribed that Part D paid

$1,983,321

Pharmacies billed $1,983,321 in 2024.

This is pharmacy cost, not the office bill, and not what patients paid.

Opioids were 18% of their Part D prescriptions (509 of 2,815) in 2024. A higher opioid share than 9 in 10 peers; the typical rheumatology clinician is at 3%. Long-acting opioids: 7% of their opioid prescriptions.

2,513 generic and fewer than 11 brand-name prescriptions · $1,983,321 in drug cost · 12 antibiotic prescriptions.

Part D prescriptions only. The opioid rate is opioid prescriptions as a share of all this clinician's Part D prescriptions; surgeons and pain specialists run higher than others, so it is shown against the same specialty.
